The Spiritual Roots of the Democratic Party: Why I Am A Mormon Democrat by Todd Compton	"Therefore, I am not arguing that the Democratic party is always correct; but I will argue that, in my view of the gospel, the national Democratic party, as it exists today, is closer to the core elements of the gospel in many of its base principles than is the national Republican party, as it exists today (which is leaning increasingly to the far right)."
The Environmental Ethics of Mormon Belief by George B. Handley	"But Mormon belief has more than enough in common with environmentalism to promote genuine and productive change in our environmental behavior. Not only is Mormon doctrine environmentally friendly, but it also provides powerful moral incentives for ecologically sustainable living. Furthermore, Mormon principles contain The striking parallels with recent work by ecotheologians and other religiously minded environmentalists."
Doing the Math  Behind the Bush Tax Plan by Kerry A. Swift  (February 2001)	"One can easily verify that tax cuts as a percentage of income increase considerably with overall wealth by re-working the rates in the IRS tax tables.  Put simply, wealthy American receives a tax cut 3 times greater than working families, as a percentage of income, under the Bush plan."
Open Letter to the Christian Coalition by Matthew Baldwin	"So let us call a spade a spade, shall we, Pat? The Christian Coalition is really the Republican Christian Coalition. The goal of your organization, founded as it is by a major player in the Republican Party, is to mobilize Christians to support Republican legislative goals."
The Big Federal Credit Card by Jeff Scott  (January 2001)	"[The government pays interest on the deficit in the amount of] $229.7 Billion in 1999.  Billion.  Almost $1000 for every man, woman, and child in the United States, every year."
The Pro-life View From the Left by Sally A. Winn (www.roevwade.org)	"The pro-life left believes that laws by themselves will not end abortion. Although we want to see these laws, we feel it is more important to address the causes of abortion. A law to ban abortion will not provide health care to a pregnant woman, it won't open a day care center, and it will not give someone a job or flexible work hours. Most importantly, it will not prevent a crisis pregnancy."
The Military Myth by Kerry A. Swift  (October 2000)	"...if you're concerned about the current condition of the U.S. military, I'm not sure that Bush is your man."
